Project Van Gogh

One of my favorite Master Impressionist Painter, Vincent van Gogh, he had develop a unique style, in his painting you could feel the intensity, innovation, sheer brilliance and that he did paint with passion. Vincent van Gogh has painted 800 oil paintings and 700 drawings, but sadly he had only sold one painting during is lifetime. It was only after his dead that his Art became famous. If you want to learn more about Vincent van Gogh follow this link. http://www.vangoghgallery.com

For this project I'm sharing with you three drawings for you to make your own Van Gogh painting. You have the choice of doing one or all of them. You could try to make a similar painting or create your own adaptation or even change the colors. I invite you to post your result on the Pirc Bulletin Board into the painting forum.

Those drawings are from Dover and don't forget to subscribe for the free sample while you are checking there. http://store.yahoo.com/doverpublications/0486405702.html
